RED BANK, TN. - The Red Bank City Commission voted Tuesday night to settle lawsuits filed back in 2010 by now former police officers.

The suits stem from a turbulent time in the red bank police force that included an alleged unlawful DUI arrest, warrantless, forced entry into the wrong home, and a controversial police chief who was fired by a city manager who was then, himself, fired.

Bradley Hanon sued the city for $1.5 million dollars claiming harassment and an assault at the hands of former Mayor Joe Glasscock.
